But here's the link to the explanation with cute drawings and stuff, designed for the clueless like the right wingers here and the corporate shills like Ted Cruz...

Dear Senator Ted Cruz, I'm going to explain to you how Net Neutrality ACTUALLY works - The Oatmeal
No, YOU tell me, because that moron comprehends nothing.

I, on the other hand, do.

So, tell us.

Already been explained, multiple times, by multiple posters, including me. Perhaps try reading the thread.

Are you going to actually offer anything in support of your ridiculous claims?

Do you actually believe what you say or not? If so, open your comments to critique, otherwise, be a know-thing bystander.

The only thing I'll say.. .is if you agree with that blogger, then you don't know what you're talking about.

Those of you opposing net neutrality: do you honestly think these giant monopolizing telecoms have our best interest in mind? Abolishing net neutrality would likely screw consumers out of more money. We already pay a lot more for less (in terms of bandwidth) for broadband, compared to other first world nations.

Here's what it would likely mean for the consumer, if net neutrality were abolished.

Ohhhh, yes, the standard "scare everyone with nonsense" to try to head off reality based discussion.

No need to repeat myself over and over. You can read, can't you? And you still haven't offered up anything to support your claims.

It's clear you have less than no idea what you're talking about, so why keep posting? You could educate yourself, in which case you wouldn't be making the utterly stupid comments you're making.

What "telecoms" do you speak of?

(BTW, most people don't get their internet via a telecom)

I don't need to "support my case". It's those arguing the regulation is needed who must make their case.

BTW, I AM an expert. I AM an authority.

Please don't try this again.
